Hm, I'm surprised no one has complained of this before. I guess it's
not common to put 'invalid' into pg_shadow.valuntil.
The cast to timestamp is really unnecessary, so I've fixed the problem
for 7.4 by taking it out. You could do the same to your copy of
pg_dumpall.c, or you could change the pg_shadow entry to be NULL rather
than 'invalid'.
